    What is the worst that could happen due to this change? Watching adult content isn't really something that "filthy perverts" do, nor is it considered as such thing. If someone with…

    As far as I remember this is an opt-in feature for developers who host their projects on sourceforge that makes the installer offer additional software, by 3rd parties, to be insta…

    Well they do have money, while they may not have members that possess the necessary knowledge I'm sure they could finance such attacks. That being said, they do not look to me like…
